A Lowe’s $150 lawnmower.
Bought it 18 years ago when I was poor(er).
I WANT it to give die; damn thing starts every fricking time. I’ve put oil in it once in 18 years.
Wish my other appliances were built like that.

Have a one gallon flash fryer that's over 20 years old and is still going strong. Hope this doesn't jinx it.

Braun wand mixer. Electric. Got it as a gift in 1992. Use it quite a bit. Still going strong after 32 years.

Arnold Schwarzenegger used one in the movie Total Recall with Sharon Stone Something to do with mining on Mars with mutants. He was blending something for breakfast I think. State of the art back in the day. Bad arse machine.

An Abercrombie & fitch belt from 1999 that I wear almost everyday.

2001 Lexus land cruiser with over 200k miles.

Both have served me well.

Edit: I guess my 101 year old south Louisiana house as well.

Bought a cheap blender when I was in grad school. Planned to just use it for a summer of making margaritas at my internship. That was circa 1998. Damn thing is 26 years old now and still going strong. Surviving (so far) a house full of teenagers.

1991 Dodge diesel pickup. Bought it used around 1996 or so. Odometer stopped at 206K, but the truck itself won’t quit. Rough calculation of fuel receipts puts it somewhere around 500K.

I have a pair of draws that when I sit down to shite looks like it has 3 leg holes. They’re at least 15 years old. Love them.

I have a 1988 Kenmore Refrigerator on my patio that is still going strong. It is pastel green with woodgrain handles.
It has an off white interior with a dozen egg slots molded into the door. The ice maker still works perfectly. It is my beer fridge, meat defrosting fridge, and frozen fish fridge.

I have a 15 year old Troy Bilt lawn mower that refuses to die. I’ve replaced the wheels, drive belt and blade several times and even worked hard year round, still cranks on the first or second pull.

My alarm clock radio was a Christmas gift from my grandparents.

In 1989.

It still works exactly as well as the day I opened it.
